Pinus radiata test stakes were treated with 10 kg/msuperscript 2 of copper chrome arsenate (CCA) plus 4 lower retentions in a geometric series of 1.5. Fagus sylvatica was treated with 15 kg/msuperscript 2 and 2 lower retentions. Both timber species were also treated with equivalent retentions of various new generation preservatives (P. radiata was also treated with creosote).
